Five Extreme Sport Activities that are Perfect for a Holiday to Morocco

Many individuals taking a holiday do so to relax and enjoy the sun and silence.  They want to have a peaceful trip that involves less chaos and stress.  For others, like me, no vacation is complete without some adrenaline pumping activities that will entertain the mind and challenge the body.  If you enjoy the extreme on your trips around the world, try the following extreme sports when you take your holiday to beautiful Morocco.

Extreme Cycling
Take bicycle riding to the next level while in Morocco with extreme cycling.  It is not the mode of transportation that makes this activity extreme but the lands upon which you will travel.  There are several steep routes that are considered to be some of the toughest cycling courses in the whole world.  The ground is rocky and the hills are steep.  However, the adventure is well worth it as you get to take a new approach to viewing the beautiful Moroccan countryside.  By the way, the course is on a hill side that is so steep it has frightened even the most seasoned of cyclists.  Be aware of safety, but take this approach to seeing Morocco and the adventure you have will far outweigh the moments of fear.

Rock Climbing
Todra Gorge in Morocco offers a great landscape for extreme activity as well.  At this location, you can climb the steep landscape of the country and get your workout in while testing your strength and might.  The climbing path can be dangerous so be sure that you are prepared and safely completing this activity.  Guides are available to help you to climb Todra Gorge with safety and supervision that will ensure that you have the safest rock climbing experience possible in the extreme conditions.  This is a must do activity for anyone who loves the extreme and wants to experience excitement, Moroccan style.

Rafting
The term rafting almost seems like a relaxing activity.  In Morocco, however, this could not be further from the truth.  One of the most fun rafting experiences in Morocco happens at the Ali Mohammed Gorge.  Here, the watery adventure course starts out slow for rafters but the tranquillity is only short-lived.  The waters shift and change into a choppy course that will have rafters tossing and turning with the power of the water.  It is a must see adventure for many when they come to Morocco and one of the most popular activities on the waters.  Try it out the next time you are in Morocco and enjoy the wild, and bumpy, ride.

Surfing
Surfing is a great extreme sport to take part in in Morocco.  Ride the waters and choppy waves as you cruise.  The waters can be wild at times so be prepared for an exhilarating adventure if this is your choice for an extreme sport while on vacation.  Who knows, you may even get to see some wonderful wildlife and aquatic friends as you make your journey on the waters.  Located on the sea, Morocco offers many great surfing spots from which to choose.  Ask the locals for some advice or take a look around.  The waters can be your playground for extreme fun on your next trip to Morocco.

Kite Surfing
If regular surfing is just not enough, there is another great, and extreme, sports activity that involves the Moroccan waters.  Kite surfing takes surfing and elevates it to a whole new level.  Instead of using a board alone to catch some killer waves, a kite like device is installed on the board.  More appropriately described as attached, this allows for wind propulsion across the service of the water.  This will give you the ride of your life across gorgeous Moroccan waters and a view of the country amidst an adrenaline rush.
